I recently adjusted my vales .06/.08 and also rebuilt my carbs. They were done separate and driven in between. I'm now noticing a pinging sound coming from the carb barrel on cylinder 3. If I put my hand over the carb throat it makes the sound go away. It is doing this at idle of ~950. I will load a video of the sound. What do you all think?

I did adjust the mixture screws and synched the carbs. That carb barrel did need me to set the idle air screw where the other 3 did not. I did this to sync carb barrels on the same carb with each other. The other 3 carbs have the screws bottomed out per Weber adjustments.

I did not check the timing as it was set before I adjusted valves and rebuilt carbs. I will double check it is still correct.
